Stone core luxury vinyl flooring facts

Stone core luxury vinyl flooring facts

As you search for the perfect luxury vinyl tile and plank, you'll find you have many options to choose from to create the ideal experience. One of your choices is SPC, also known as stone plastic composite, which describes the core part of this material.

If you’ve never heard of or experienced this flooring option, this is a great time to learn what it could do for your household. Here are some facts to help you make that determination.

What is stone core flooring?


This term describes incredibly durable products with a rigid core made of powdered limestone and stabilizers. Luxury vinyl plank and tile are also 100% waterproof for outstanding performance in every room throughout your home.

Stone core products also offer some of the most impressive visuals in the industry, with products that mimic natural tile, wood, and stone products. That means it provides a fantastic décor match, no matter your existing décor scheme.

Benefits of stone core flooring


One of the best features of SPC flooring is that the products are thinner without sacrificing the extensive durability you need. They're not as soft underfoot, but an underlayment is available to add more comfort to LVT flooring products.

Like most luxury vinyl, these floors offer an excellent wear layer that protects against daily wear. But, again, ask about the thickness ranges and which one works best with your specific in-house traffic levels.
